Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureA-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Steelers.

The Steelers put a flag in the ground for Jordan White, 61 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Pavia falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. With edge rusher unsolved, spending premium capital on offensive lineman is the choice that costs them.

The Steelers clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 28 they get a lockdown presence outside. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Trevor Goosby
The board had cheaper options than Trevor Goosby at pick 46, and it noticed. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick68 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
No edge and no loss on Michael Taaffe in pick No. 68; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick83 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A quiet steal in the 83rd overall pick: A.J. Haulcy for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Good price on Malachi Fields in No. 94, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick99 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at the Round 3 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries at slot 107 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113 Rnd4 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in the 113th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick119 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
By-the-book stuff, Bryce Lance at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
DJ McKinney at Round 4, Pick 24 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Diego Pavia
They robbed the room for Diego Pavia here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard in No. 139 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140 Rnd4 Logan Jones
A want over a need in the 140th pick: Logan Jones adds an offensive lineman while edge rusher keeps waiting.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jacob Rodriguez this early at pick 143. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They talked themselves into DJ Campbell at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jyaire Hill
They read the board right and Jyaire Hill was the payoff at the 154th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick163 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
A wild overpay on Bryce Boettcher in Round 5, Pick 23, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny in the 170th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in pick No. 174 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick175 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at No. 175 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Makhi Hughes
They took Makhi Hughes at par in slot 209, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick213 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They reached a country mile for Trey Zuhn III at pick 213, and the board is aghast. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jordan White
Jordan White at the 214th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick229 Rnd7 De'Zhaun Stribling
A reach on De'Zhaun Stribling in Round 7, Pick 14; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jerry Wilson
They paid up for Jerry Wilson at pick 233 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Amare Campbell
No drama and no debate, Amare Campbell went about where he belonged in the 239th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Cayden Lee
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cayden Lee. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
